Visited Hammocks Beach State Park here in North Carolina and could not find any place to hang a hammock, false advertising ??

Just kidding. You have to take a boat to get to this park. Wife and I went over on a day trip to explore and walk along the beach and of course take some pictures.

Even though we did not see any hanging sites, the tent campers are sleeping on soft sand.

Coming back on the park ferry boat we had to share the ride back with a family complaining about the camping conditions. I guess they did not read the part that all the camping on the island is primitive camping and few facilities are available.

I took a group to Hammocks Beach St Park several years ago. I talked about my experience there in post #19 of this thread...http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/s...ach+State+Park
I don't know if Jeff & his family ever made the trip out there or not. Cool place to visit, but I guess if you wanted to use your hammock, you would need to have your hammock stand, etc, on wheels. It's a walk from the dock to the camping sites, some more than others.
